You can achieve this by the hue saturation panel

instead of master
use individual channels

Looks like green has heavily boosted in this image, so maybe the hue of the channels were set to near ish green

You can also use the photo filter adjustment layer to mimic a green filter. Looks to be a wee bit of contrast added too as well as a bit of soft focus effect.
This is done by duplicating your image on a new layer, adding a good bit of Gaussian blur and changing the blending mode to overlay or softlight, adjust opacity to suit.

Also looks like if he used curves and then selected the "cross process"
option in CS3.
